Form C-W Filings

What Is SEC Form C-W?

SEC Form C-W is a withdrawal filing submitted through EDGAR to withdraw a previously filed Form C offering statement for a Regulation Crowdfunding offering.

This form is typically filed when an issuer decides not to proceed with the crowdfunding offering or needs to remove the offering statement from active filing status. It is an event-driven filing rather than a periodic report.

Form C-W supports transparency by formally notifying the SEC that a previously filed Regulation Crowdfunding offering statement has been withdrawn. It does not function as a new offering statement or amendment, and it is filed as needed when the issuer withdraws the original Form C submission.

Key elements typically found in SEC Form C-W include:

• Name of the issuer and identifying filing information
• Reference to the previously filed Form C offering statement
• SEC file number and CIK information
• Filing date of the withdrawal submission
• Confirmation that the filing is an offering statement withdrawal
• Electronic submission through the EDGAR system

SEC Form C-W Filing Deadlines

SEC Form C-W does not have a fixed periodic filing deadline. These filings are submitted when an issuer chooses to withdraw a previously filed Regulation Crowdfunding offering statement, and timing is therefore based on the issuer’s filing decision rather than a recurring reporting schedule.
